Re: Hosting Virtual Tabletop
I did look into a business plan and it was going to be double the cost monthly to get what I needed. Also, I found out that to switch to business requires a totally different modem and dish to the tune of about $600. So, that was also a factor since I already have the residential version. I searched for some alternatives and eventually settled on a Microsoft Azure. I just finished setup today and it appears to be a good alternative to local hosting. (FYI: They arecurrently offering 30day free with $200 in credit spending to try out the service.) . Thanks for all the advice and helping me understand what I needed from you. I learned several new things aboutsatellite Internet that I likely should have researched first. But, as you were my last hope forInternet it did not matter much. ;)4.3KViews1like0CommentsRe: Hosting Virtual Tabletop
Corrosive - The application should be fine in the sense that a delay of that magnitude is no problem with gameplay. I am not a business, and I am a new residential customer. Can I switch to a plan that would allow me to host the game? It sounds like you are saying that it is not possible to upgrade after signup, so I just wanted to clarify that point. or do other restrictions apply? Thanks for the feedback C0RR0SIVEwrote: To be able to host, and port forward, you *must* be an SME (business) customer with port forwarding purchased at the time of sign up.4.3KViews0likes4CommentsHosting Virtual Tabletop
I host a weekly virtual tabletop game using Fantasy Grounds software, and I am trying to see if it will work with Hughesnet. Basically it is an app that is run on a windows 10 machine. Others(usually 3) across the interent connect to the app on a specific port. From what I have read so far, this is not possible with hughesnet service, but I wanted to get some feedback on if I am right in my thinking. Any feedback is appreciated.Solved4.3KViews0likes6Comments
